Snuff Review

[hittman]

I always liked to press my thumb into my first finger, tap a little on my thumbnail and sniff it from there. I tried a few bullets but you have to watch out using dry powdery snuffs like scotches in them. It's easy to sniff too hard and get a solid brain hit.

 

[Skrymr]

I just pinch some in between my thumb and first finger and rub them together gently while sniffing it.

The nice thing about snuff is that it's super cheap and even a small tin seems to last forever.

Vapenstein, I think the Grunt is under-rated. I like the Medic, too.

It could use more burn, but it has plenty of nic, and the drip is the best drip of any snuff ever. 6 Photo Natural is fantastic along similar lines.

lately I can't get enough Viking Brown, which is like SG Kendal Brown minus the citrus. I don't think they are quite the same though, because I feel the nic more with Viking, and the Viking has a rough, barnyard aroma to it that I love.

Also, I finally found a menthol I like. 6 Photo Medicated No. 66. I start and end each day with this one. Same flour as the 6 Photo Natural, with a masterful blending of menthol and camphor. Very clearing and refreshing.

Thanks for the tips! The Viking sounds like something I would enjoy. I'll have to get going on adding to my collection!

Vapenstein, have you ever tried hedges l260? It's probably the strongest menthol I've tried.

Are you supposed to get a drip when using snuff? I didnt think you were supposed to snort it that hard?

I don't know if you're supposed to, but it isn't uncommon for me. The drip from Honey Bee taste's like honey.

 

[hittman]

I do fairly often too. Like skrymr said the honey bee tastes great but most other ones are pretty foul.

 

[SimplySnus]

Hmm, have never actually snorted snuff like that, I have always just gently sniffed it. Maybe I will have to try a good old whack at my WoS R&B.

 

[Skrymr]

I don't snort snuff either, but I would think anyone who takes snuff will eventually end up with some in their sinus' unless they are constantly blowing their nose to prevent it. Especially the finer snuff's like toast's and scotch's.

 

[firechick]

Dred always liked a good ol' brain hit. There's another name I miss seeing around here.

 

[hittman]

I remember when he made his own snuff and sent us some.

 

[firechick]

I sent him some menthol crystals to experiment with. I wonder how that turned out?

 

[SimplySnus]

I do not have a huge snuff selection like I have with snus, but have been using the WoS Rum & Blackberry quite a lot lately , cant say I really enjoy the drip at all but it isnt bad. I dont think I get as much out of it, when I snort it opposed to lightly sniffing it.
